I was thinking, is there a Lion in shaolin gung fu? I mean I think it would be alot like a tiger, except lions are more team oriented animals. Would a lion bob and weave, or slip the punch?

I know a guy who teaches hung gar who's big on lions. Apparently its more of a southern thing. There used to lions in south china, but the asiatic lion is now extinct I believe.Show me a man who has forgotten words, so that I can have a word with him.

They had dragons, Paz. Where you been.
Just ask the FLW's at the Feng Yuan..
Phoenixes, if I spelled that corectly, are a British invention, coming from the Old English and Latin. Which, doesn't explain much, since "dragons" have a similar origin.

Well, here's the thing, I've been looking for something that would help tie in what I've learned in scouts with martial arts. Baden Powell, founder of scouts, spent time in africa, lions are near africa so... bang bada boom..
By the way I once saw a nine ring broadsword with a lin on it.
Lions and tigers are alot alike but the thing is lions have prides, where as tigers hunt by themselves.
Another thing about the Phoenix, is it close to Thunderbirds? I mean some people native american peoples believed in a large bird with thunderbolts."If you want pure self-defense buy a can of mace." Grandmaster Villari (I think that is it).

In Baguazhang (particularly the Yin Fu lineages) there is a Lion style. It's part of the Eight Animals of Bagua. I have never seen it performed however, but there people who teach it."For some reason I'm in a good mood today. I haven't left the house yet, though. "
